Glendora California Nursing Home Safety Concerns

One Star Rating

To be fully informed on the level of care nursing homes provide, families routinely research Medicare.gov and the California Department of Public Health website database systems for a complete list of deficiencies, violations, and citations.

According to Medicare, this facility maintains an overall rating of one out of five stars, including two out of five stars concerning health inspections, one out of five stars for staffing issues, and two out of five stars for quality measures.

  • Failure to Respond Appropriately to All Alleged Violations – citation #F610 date October 15, 2018
  • The state investigators determined that the nursing home “failed to follow the facility’s policy regarding the removal of an alleged abuser from the resident care areas.” The nursing home also failed to “provide and document the conclusion of the investigation within five days of reporting the incident to the Department of Public Health (DPH).”

    The deficient practice involved an incident “of alleged abuse [of a resident]” and “had the potential to place the resident’s safety at risk.” The investigation involved a cognitively intact resident who stated that she had informed a Licensed Vocational Nurse “of alleged abuse by her Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA).”

    The Licensed Vocational Nurse confirmed that on or around 7:30 PM on September 28, 2018, the resident “informed him of the alleged abuse incident” involving the CNA and stated “he informed his Nursing Supervisor, a Registered Nurse (RN), about the alleged abuse and that the resident requested for [that CNA] to be removed from her care.” The Licensed Vocational Nurse stated that the CNA “was reassigned from the resident’s care and worked until the end of the shift.”

    The investigators interviewed the Registered Nurse, who stated that “any alleged abuse must be reported to the Administrator and the alleged abuser removed from the unit as soon as possible.” The Director of Staff Development confirmed that the CNA “worked his whole shift, in the same unit as the resident,” that made the allegation of abuse.

    The Administrator verified, “it was important to remove the abuser from resident care to make sure the well-being of the resident was taken care of along with her safety.” The state surveyors asked the Administrator for “the results of the investigation and a fax which indicated the report was sent to the Department of Public Health within five working days of the incident.” The Administrator stated that “the conclusion report had not been sent to the Department of Public Health.”

Jonathan did a great job helping my family navigate through a lengthy lawsuit involving my grandmother's death in a nursing home. Through every step of the case, Jonathan kept my family informed of the progression of the case. Although our case eventually settled at a mediation, I really was impressed at how well prepared Jonathan was to take the case to trial. Lisa

After I read Jonathan’s Nursing Home Blog, I decided to hire him to look into my wife’s treatment at a local nursing home. Jonathan did a great job explaining the process and the laws that apply to nursing homes. I immediately felt at ease and was glad to have him on my side. Though the lawsuit process was at times frustrating, Jonathan reassured me, particularly at my deposition. I really felt like Jonathan cared about my wife’s best interests, and I think that came across to the lawyers for the nursing home. Eric
